    3. Hi Kathy: So, what can you figure from the census - 5 Russells Grove was where my John Russell lived along with his wife and several boarders and he is shown as owner. Then at 1, 3 and 4 there were other families shown as renters. This was just on the 1920 census. On the 1930, again the Russells were shown as living in a distinct "section" of Delaware Ave. but I couldn't make out the handwriting. After walking the block that day, the area I mentioned was the only logical choice given the entry. But now I can't figure where the area might have been. Any ideas?
